Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]

I have just printed off the entire set of FoI information and assembled it in chronological order.
There is a page titled EU feedback on Phorm's technologies that states that Phorm initiated discussions on internet privacy with a range of EU audiences. The names in [ ] were blanked out and have been googled.

European Commission.
The Head of the Data Protection Unit [Philippe Renaudière] considered that OIX and Webwise were clearly Privacy Enhancing technologies, which were very much in line with what the Commission is seeking to achieve in terms of internet privacy. He invited Phorm to cooperate with the Commission to enhance privacy standards.

European Parliament
Phorm has met the Raporteur on the revisions to the E-Privacy Directive in the Internal Market and Consumer Protection Committee, [?] (Conservative, UK), and [?] (Liberal, Germany), draftsman on privacy aspects in the Civil Liberties, Justice And Home Affairs Committee, on several occasions. [?] and [?] have been particularly interested to learn how Phorm's technologies offer solutions to MEP concerns regarding the storage of personal data. They invited [K*nt ?] to participate in an informal lunch discussion earlier this week to explain that the storage of browsing history is not necessary for targeted advertising, nor the use of IP addresses.

God help us.
